In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO
Chapter 93

The entrance of the dormitory wasn't the best location to have theconversation. Therefore, Skylar calmed herself and warned Jackson,“You should forget about it because there's no way I'm going to getmarried to you! If you insist on behaving as such, I'm afraid we're notgoing to be friends as welll”

She returned Jackson the croissant he had brought her after she madeherself clear.

Jackson lowered his gaze and replied in an aggrieved manner, “I heardabout your past relationship from your aunt. You had a boyfriend, anddespite his condition, you stayed by his side through thick and thin. Iknow you're a great lady who will never let me down. Isn't that what arelationship is all about—spending time with your loved ones andtaking care of one another?

Skylar was at a loss for words to rebuke the geeky young man's replybecause he had completely missed the point of her words.

She found it difficult to communicate with Jackson because theyweren't on the same channel. He paid no heed to her words andfocused on delivering his one-sided message.

Frustrated, Skylar walked away in an attempt to shrug Jackson off, yethe wouldn't stay away from her as though he was a brand new familiarshe had just summoned after leveling up in some fantasy RPG game.She didn't appreciate this so-called familiar of hers at all.

On her way to Aldwych Building, she encountered Jeremy at theentrance

Although they were university mates, never would she expect to runinto him because their campus was a gigantic one. Running into himwas the last thing she had on her to-do list.

She noticed he had reverted to square one and wasn't the dashing manhe used to be when he was discharged from the hospital—he stoppeddressing up and dolling himself properly.

The set of outfits he had put on was the usual one he had.

Skylar wanted to stay away from Jeremy as far as she could. She quicklywalked over to her classroom as usual. However, he got in her way andstopped her by placing his arm on the wall.

As Jackson got ahead of Skylar to defend her righteously, Jeremystarted teasing her.

“What do we have here? Have you been dumped again? Is this yournew boyfriend? Have you gotten into a relationship with whoeveryou're able to get your hands on after running out of luck?”

Skylar's eyelashes trembled unwittingly, but she put on a strong frontand replied indifferently, “Oh? Who are you to judge? No matter howdesperate I am, I will never return to you anymore.”

Meanwhile, Jackson held his chest high and announced, “Hey, I'mSkylar's boyfriend! You should mind your words and refrain frombadmouthing her!”

Jeremy was confused. He thought Skylar had forsaken Tobias after afew days and gotten into a new relationship with another chubby-looking geek. She was merely a step away from becoming a member ofthe upper echelon.

However, he thought Jackson and Skylar were a pair made in heavendue to their matching look.

Jeremy ridiculed the duo, "You know what? Both of you are such greatmatches for one another! It's like the dwarf and the ugly duckling!”

He leaned over and whispered, “Have you forgotten my warning? Yourlife will end up miserably if you get into a relationship with a man ofsuch complicated background? I guess I wasn't wrong at all! You shouldhave listened to me! If you did, you wouldn't have settled for less withsuch a dwarf! Congratulations! I guess this is the best out of the worstpossible outcomes, isn't it?”

Skylar smirked in return and rebuked, “So what if he's a dwarf? A dwarfis better than a jerk!”

She turned to enter the building after her words without looking back,leaving Jeremy and Jackson at the entrance.

Jeremy found Skylar hilarious and pathetic. He thought Tobias hadabandoned her after he had had enough of an ordinary woman. Hemisperceived she had gotten into a relationship with Jackson becauseshe had run out of options.

After Skylar got off her class, she couldn't believe her eyes becauseJackson was still around, waiting for her outside of the classroom.

She felt a chill running down her spine and dashed off in anotherdirection to stay away from him

What the hell is wrong with him? He's even more dedicated thanTobias’ bodyguards!

In the meantime, Tobias, who had returned, found the so-calledinvitation card to Skylar and Jackson's wedding ceremony on his tablein the study room.

His pupils constricted while he frowned and walked down the stairswith the invitation card.

Along with Tanya and her parents, Claudia joined the family of three fora cup of tea, catching up with one another casually.
